Has anyone used this with a dog? Have a 35 pound beagle mix. Also would use for grocery shopping.

I would not buy this trailer again, except for parts. I would not put a dog in it, much less groceries. The rear suspension is poorly designed.

While the weight of your four footed friend would not be an issue, weight distribution would be... Inevitably your pooch would shift position and throw the balance off... I suspect it would cause you undue headache and possibly cause an unintended and rapid lunge toward the earth... If your four footed compadre is a factor, you'd probably do much better with a two wheeled trailer... Be safe, and have a great day!!!

Have not used it to carry dog. Size and weight rating should easy hold the groceries and dog. My thoughts are in line with Jay Tee. One nice thing about the trailer over having cargo mounted on bike at seat hight luggage rack, is the center of gravity is much lower and the extra weight does not affect the balance issues of quick maneuvers as much as if it was strapped to the higher seat hight luggage rack. Still have to be careful.

Mollie is about 28 lbs. She loves this bed. A 35lb pooch may work but I'm not sure. I think I would give it a try.

I don't think so. My dogs are 10 lbs & it is a good size for them. Our beagle is 35lbs & it is too small for him.

I have a 5 pound yorkie so I don't know how your dogs would fit or not. I love the stroller and use it all the time as I love to walk for exercise and she is too small to walk with me very far. I wouldn't put anything real heavy in the basket but it is sturdy and useable.

I use it for cat food. The kibble pieces are small but a 16 lb bag has a fair amount left over that does not fit. I have started using the 25lb vault instead. If I buy 25 lb bags of cat food it is a tight fit in the 25 lb vault. I would buy a larger capacity vault for your dog food.

I have a 15lb. Beagle and there's enough room to sit, stand, and turn around. Hope this helps.

I think a med might work best for your dog. Our dog is a beagle and approx 25lbs. He needs a diet but the straps allow for you to snug down if needed. Truly is a great vest...

I think the Otto step would be better if it was a bit wider. I had 2 dogs I was using it with and if I didn't guide them straight they would miss it and fall. I have a german sheppard/afgand hound mix - very tall dog with long legs ~ 60 lbs and lab ~ 55 lbs and they both would miss the step if I didn't make sure they were straight in front of it. Its a great concept but didn't work out as well for me and my dogs. I would give it a try though because other dogs seem to figure it out just fine.

Maybe but it'd be a tight. My 30lb terrier mix fit upon it comfortably, but she never actually used it. She stepped on it, sniffed it, and totally snubbed it. Never stepped on it again. I packed it up that day to send it back.

hmmm.. I have a 30 lb beagle, but this is pretty sturdy. The descriptions say's up to 60 lbs.

I purchased a "small" for my 8 pound Silky Terrier. It fit relatively well for that size/weight. However, she was very bothered by the straps around her back legs/groin area and wouldn't walk. When I pulled on leash, her back end went right up in the air...so did not work out for us. A larger, heavier dog will likely be more adaptable to this style. Good luck.

My dog is a beagle daschoung mix, about 32 or 33 lbs. It is ok for him for travleing. I dont use it for long term kenneling. He can stand up in it and move around. The crate is very good quality, easy to set up and take down. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Never tried it, but since the 40 lb unit WILL NOT hold 40 lbs of dog food (I don't know where the 40 lb rating from the manufacturer comes from, I had to buy a second overly expensive can to completely hold my 40 lb bag), I would guess that due to the bag not fully conforming to the interior can, you would not be able to fit a 30 lb bag, maybe a 20 lb bag. Like the others said, I don't know why you would want to do that, you would be wasting half the advantages of the can.

Probably. I use it for my 15 pound dachshund. It's only a few inches from the floor and holds about 1-1/2 cups of food, which is perfect for a small dog. Perhaps a larger one is available?

I have a Terrier and he can't do it. It's fairly heavy. But a big dog could probably do it if her were determined to. Though he'd have trouble getting a grip since there is a lid. He'd have to be very serious. I like the can a lot. Only drawback is a fairly small recycle side so you have to replace bag a lot and the bags are sized such that you need to order them special from Simple Human / here on Amazon.

I have a 42lb collie/lab mix in it now. He lays down most of the time and can turn around and all, but I'm sure I could've gone bigger. I actually brought it for a Maltese who's really small, but it was way too big... unless you want it that big, but you could fit 4 little dogs in it no problem. I'm no expert so you may want to physically look at the size in a store. Hope I helped a bit.

Our mini Aussie is about 35 lbs. and she fits perfectly so it should be just fine for a beagle. This is a very well constructed soft crate, and our Aussie loves it!
